FULL BIO

Leon Ho has a decade of experience in technology and the Internet. As manager of Software Engineering at Red Hat, Inc., Leon led an international team of software engineers to add international support -- including 22 languages -- to Red Hat's Enterprise Linux. In 2005, he founded lifehack.org, a blog committed to sharing what Leon had learned about productivity and personal development as the manager of a team of professionals spanning several continents.

In 2007, Leon left Red Hat to launch Stepcase as an umbrella for both lifehack.org -- by then one of the most popular blogs in the world, ranked in the top half of Technorati's Top 100 Blogs list -- and his new endeavor, Stepcase Apps. Leon's commitment to increasing productivity and individual happiness by leveraging the power of the Internet to make us more efficient, better connected, and more mobile has won him the #4 spot in BusinessWeek's Top 24 Young Asian Entrepreneurs.
